    VE headers on VF

    My G8 (VE) just got totaled by insurance and I'm buying it back to use the engine/transmission in another project and part out the car.

    Front end clunk

    Been searching for weeks but can't find a definitive answer. My 2008 g8 GT has a clunk coming from the front end somewhere, going over small bumps, it gets worse when it's below about 10c, and mostly goes away above 23c.
